Do you think a therapist job is to...
Say "uncomfortable" things?
Mine shared this is her view .
I don't believe that's the main goal or objective of a therapist. I think they should validate your experience or feelings, and be objective...if they are not supposed to "tell you what to do", which I believe they use that as a way to be completely cut off from offering real guidance, then why would telling a person negative, uncomfortable things, be more important, than giving helpful tips? Most people are there not from having positive helpful people or experiences...they are there often due to horrible experiences already😢
